SPINJIM 1,981 #5 Posted May 14, 2020 One horse power engine, or one kid engine? Good on gas mileage. Nice pickup. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Racinbob 11,042 #6 Posted May 14, 2020 That's cool. Have any idea how old it is? I remember riding one when I was a kid. You might want to come up with a spring guard. Little fingers are tender. 1 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
953 nut 55,069 #7 Posted May 14, 2020 Do I see real wood being used there, that and the open springs as @Racinbob pointed out make it almost as old as we are. 1 hour ago, Ed Kennell said: picked this one off the curb Price was right too! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I like it! 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
D_Mac 8,593 #12 Posted May 15, 2020 Speaking of grand nephews Here are a couple of toys I picked up for mine when he was younger. I think most of you have seen the Hot Rod radio Flyers. This was a coin-op Kiddie Ride straight out of a Chuckie Cheese. Thing weighed a ton. Not only did it look like it came from NASA on the outside, you should have seen everything on the inside. It moved back and forth and up and down. All the lights flashed and made laser fire noise. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
